Here are a few of the common scenarios that members run into when trying to circumvent our Promotional Content policy. These are all violations of our Promotional Content policy:
| Note |
|---|
Mentioning any paid content/payment platforms that they use, such as: “My Patreon is feeling kinda lonely” “Spending too much time updating my JFF” “Why is the Clips4Sale creator interface so terrible?” “Who else is creating content on OnlyFans?” |
| Note |
|---|
Sharing information around activities directly related to creating/sharing paid content, products or services, such as: “Just finished filming the most incredible video. Maybe my hottest one yet.” “Is anyone else’s internet spotty? I’m supposed to go on cam in a few minutes and it’s in and out…” “Looking to switch to a subscription platform that doesn’t take 20%, any suggestions?” “Waiting for the pizza to arrive so I can make this video and go to bed!” |
| Note |
|---|
If you produce paid content, vaguely mentioning any upcoming or recent content, such as: “Releasing a new video tonight!” “Just posted a new vid, might be my best one yet” “Can’t wait to release these pics from my latest photo shoot.” “You guys are gonna love this collab when I post it.” |
| Note |
|---|
Offering giveaways, free or discounted subscriptions, or other kinds of promotions for paid content, products or services, such as: “Giving away a free T-shirt from my store today to one of my followers. Follow me now to be considered.” “10% off my vids this week only!” “Feeling generous… who wants a free month subscription to my OF?” “For Black Friday, all my commissions are half off.” |
| Note |
|---|
Using subtle phrasing or hints, such as: “Hope you like my new pic. There’s more of them for my supporters.” “Just posted a video on that other site 😉” “If you like my photos, send me a message to find out what else I have.” “I can’t mention it here, but DM me if you’re interested in some special videos.” |
| Note |
|---|
Phrasing the promotional content as a joke, such as: “The latest post on my OnlyFans is SO, so dumb. lol” “I’m so hungry, I’d send all my videos to someone if they’d buy me a pizza.” “I know work from home is the latest thing, but as a cam model, I’ve been doing it since long before it was cool 🤣” |
| Note |
|---|
Mentioning past commercial activity, such as: “Thank you so much to User123 for buying my latest video!” “Just thinking of the sweet guy who told me I’m ‘perfect’ on my OnlyFans.” “I’m excited that someone on here posted a photo in the shirt I sold them.” “I think that cam show last night was my best yet.” |
| Note |
|---|
Using codes for paid content/payment platforms, such as: “Thinking of taking some photos for my spicy site. 😉” “OF course I have new pics up on that site” “I got pics if you got 💸App” “Updated my C4S” |
What About Photos?
When it comes to Promotional Content, photos uploaded publicly are treated exactly the same as text posts made in the newsfeed. That means any photo, or text within the photo or caption, that states or implies that the poster is seeking to promote paid content, products or services is NOT allowed.
...
Members are allowed to include promotional content information in their profile description/bio. Where such information is present, however, any newsfeed or photofeed post that directs others to their profile/bio would then be considered a violation of the Promotional Content policy, even if the post itself doesn’t include any obvious promotional elements.
| Note |
|---|
For example, if a member’s profile/bio text included their OnlyFans, Patreon, JustForFans or Clips4Sale information; a link to content for sale; an offer to create custom content or provide a service; links or information about products for sale; or any other kind of promotional content, the following newsfeed posts would NOT be allowed: “Check out my profile text to help me out.” “Just posted some new videos, link in bio.” “If you like my pics, read my bio.” “Check out my profile text 😉” “Stop messaging me to ask if I have more pics, everything you need is in my bio.” |
Importantly, if the member’s bio does not include any such Promotional Content, that member would be allowed to make posts referring to their profile/bio without violating this policy.
...
Any direct links to videos that are primarily focused on promoting paid content is also considered an “ad” or Promotional Content.
| Note |
|---|
Here are a few examples of things that would be considered “ads”:
|
As any of the above cited examples of “ads” constitute Promotional Content, they are not allowed to be posted to the newsfeed or photofeed, nor inorganically sent via private message, on Grommr and Chasable.
...
If a member is currently offering paid content, products or services, they are not allowed to mention them in the newsfeed, even if phrased as a question.
| Note |
|---|
Some examples of posts that would not be allowed from a member who is presently offering any paid content, products, or services include:
